The King is Dead

Gossip Girl but make it royal – a Black LGBTQ+ royal reimagining full of scandalous secrets, rollercoaster romances and one hell of a mystery, from the award-winning author Benjamin Dean.

‘Scandalous, funny and deliciously compelling!’ Catherine Doyle, co-author of Twin Crowns

'All hail this royal debut that twists, turns, and revels in palace intrigue and deceit.' Kirkus

James has been a prince all his life, and since he was born, he’s been thrust into the spotlight as the first Black heir to the throne. But when his father dies unexpectedly, James is crowned king at the tender age of seventeen, and his life irrevocably changes.

When James’ boyfriend suddenly goes missing, threatening envelopes appear in the palace, and gossip and scandals that only he knows are leaked to the public. As the anonymous informant continues to expose every last skeleton in the royal closet, James realises even those in his inner circle can’t be trusted.

Längesen en bok fångade mig lika mycket som denna. Spännande så att jag lyssnade klart på ett par dagar. Författaren kan dock bli lite överförklarande, vilket drar ner boken
